Pink Chinoiserie!

For Valentine's Day!


I had a scrap of birch plywood on the porch
 and I had not put anything on my front door since the Christmas decorations came down

So I cut out a big, fat heart.


I put a quick primer coat of white paint on it.
And then I grabbed some pink paint.
A little bit of quick sketching.


And then I just quickly painted some images
 from my favorite blue and white dishes that I have around the house.




 It was a lot of fun.
 You just need one color of paint and some white paint. 
That's it!
I used Sherwin Williams Eros (deep pink.) 



I wanted to freshen things up a bit. It's been so gray lately.

And Mollie has a friend coming to stay for the weekend. 
A group of them are going out to celebrate "Singles Awareness Day" this weekend. 
The name for February 14th if you are unattached :)



I had the perfect pink Greek Key ribbon!
A quick bow and on the front door it goes!



 There! 
Nothing says "hello" like a pink Chinoiserie heart
 and some sunshine!

This was a quick and easy project. 
And since I have wanted to make blue and white Chinoiserie Christmas ornaments for literally two years
 I'm feeling pretty accomplished to get this painted 
and show the front door some love!!
